When creating polygons in these layers, the best construction tool to use is the Auto Complete Polygon. I can manually go into the properties of every feature class within every layer and set the default tool, but this takes long. I was wondering if it was possible to create a script to automate this process; or if there was some easier way to do this.</P><P></P><P>I did find this on the esri blog, but I'm not familiar with using Visual Studio and VB.NET: <A href="https://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2011/01/28/customizing-the-editing-environment-changing-feature-template-properties/" title="https://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2011/01/28/customizing-the-editing-environment-changing-feature-template-properties/">Customizing the editing environment: Changing feature template properties | ArcGIS Blog</A> </P><P></P><P>Thanks.</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 30 Jun 2016 19:43:29 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/setting-default-construction-tool-for-multiple/m-p/510232#M40095 AndrewGehlot 2016-06-30T19:43:29Z Re: setting default construction tool for multiple features/layers https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/setting-default-construction-tool-for-multiple/m-p/510233#M40096 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I don't see anything in the arcpy help in either classes or functions for any module, but the link is here in any evenet</P><P><A href="https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/analyze/arcpy/what-is-arcpy-.htm" title="https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/analyze/arcpy/what-is-arcpy-.htm">What is ArcPy?—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop</A> </P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 01 Jul 2016 01:16:26 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/setting-default-construction-tool-for-multiple/m-p/510233#M40096 DanPatterson_Retired 2016-07-01T01:16:26Z
